my 240sx ford 302 engine changes (lots of pics)

V8 240sx? Sure! If either the chassis OR the engine is non-Nissan (i.e. SR20 in an RX-7 or LS1 in a 240sx), we've done it.

You must know quite a bit about electronics, not sure I would tear them apart like that, too afraid too make a mistake and destroy an investment. I'm not usually a downer, but you could have saved a lot of time by saving and doing it all at once, but you obviously have lots of time to tear down and rebuild multiple times so all and all its not that bad. Keep up the good work. DIY rules.

It's been a while since I remember you throwing the swap idea around. It's good to see it come this far. Proud of you paisano...
